A Look Inside Pandora's Mind

A bunch of thoughts and rants from the mind of Pandora.

Why Facebook Sucks

Friday, April 25, 2008

I am seriously aggravated by Facebook. It is a stupid site, and I don't understand why it's so popular. Here is why Facebook sucks:

  1. The biggest problem I have with it is that you cannot customize your page whatsoever. Facebook profiles are visually unappealing. You can't put layouts on them to make them look better.
  2. The site is hard to navigate. I seriously have no idea what I'm doing. So many links to everything.
  3. You can only view people's profiles if you send them a message or are in their network. It's so freaking confusing.
  4. The apps you can put on it, make the profiles look so ugly and cluttered.
This was supposed to be a longer rant but I can't really think of anymore reasons as to why I hate Facebook.

Nirvana Was NOT and Still is NOT a Good Band

Saturday, April 19, 2008

This might piss a few people off but... what's the big deal with Nirvana? Why do so many young people think that they are fantastically great?
Most of the younger people that listen to them only listen to them because their friends tell them they're great. Those friends really only think Nirvana is cool because Kurt Cobain killed himself. It is a simple truth. Same goes for SOME (I stress SOME) of the people that like Sublime.
I've questioned a few that like Nirvana. I asked a friend that liked Nirvana if he liked Pearl Jam, he told me no. This came as no shock. It just shows he was following the trend of liking Nirvana. Why do I say this? Nirvana started AFTER Pearl Jam. Nirvana sounds no different than any of the other grunge bands that came out of Seattle.
When you ask some of Nirvana's young fans who were born AFTER the grunge movement they will tell you that they don't like Pearl Jam and other grunge bands, yet they WORSHIP Nirvana. This makes no sense. It really blows my mind. I'm not trying to preach the whole "don't follow mainstream" thing. But come on! If you're gonna like Nirvana, you have to like one or two other grunge fans or you're just a fan because Cobain killed himself.
Post mortem popularity. Now isn't that a bit morbid?

The Internets Is No Place for Sarcasm!

Tuesday, April 15, 2008

Have you ever said something sarcastic while IMing a friend only to have them get pissed off at you? This happens to me too often. It's something I still haven't learned. Sarcasm doesn't work in cyberspace.
Even in everyday conversation I get in trouble because people never know when I'm being sarcastic or serious. It's a problem that I'm trying to work on. I know for sure that I change the tone of my voice when I say something sarcastic but still, no one can tell.
Back to the point! How can we resolve this? Friends tell me to not be sarcastic online and that will solve my problems. My problem with that is, I CAN'T! I'm naturally a very very sarcastic person. It's just like saying to someone with asthma, "just stop breathing and it will solve your problems!" And that's just ridiculous.
I say, everyone complain enough so there's a sarcasm button like there is a bold, italics and underline option. If enough people complain I think there will be something done about it. So go out there! Whine and complain! Hopefully that'll help me from saying online before I'm sarcastic, "I'm just being sarcastic but [insert sarcasm here]." It's annoying.

Introducing..... Pandora!

Monday, April 14, 2008

Wow, my first post. I'm kind of excited about this. (I realize I seem like a loser saying that) I'm new to this whole blogging thing. So, if I write something that makes no sense feel free to comment.
To the point of the blog, there is no real point for me writing this. Part of me wanted to start this up because I am a VERY opinionated person. I have strong opinions on many things, from the influence of Hollywood on the American people, government, politics, to music. If you read this often you will find random thoughts and also editorial type things on here. It all just depends on my mood.
I hope you enjoy.
